I can successfully connect from a VAX (4000-700a) running VMS v7.3 to
the PDP-11/53 (again, running RSTS/E v10.1) via:
$ set host/appl=rterm 61.4
Terminal control is a bit wonky, but it works. This is what crashes
from the Alpha running VMS v8.3.
I can also add that
$ set host/appl=rterm 61.4
crashes out in a similar way on an Alpha running V8.2. However, it can be used
to successfully connect to a VAX running VAX/VMS V5.5-2. On the other hand,
VAX/VMS V5.5-2 does not have the /APPLICATION qualifier to SET HOST so
outgoing RTERM connections are not possible from it.
